METANOIA is an interdisciplinary gathering exploring the foundations of conversion and the nature of change.
METANOIA is the second annual conference of the Cluny Institute, an organization that invests in the human person through education, publications, experiences and ventures. By combining intellectual rigor, spiritual depth and artistic excellence, we are laying the groundwork for the renewal; a culture in which the human spirit is free to respond to its highest aspirations, changing the vector of innovation away from shallow things and toward an integral human ecology.
Our mission is the human person, fully alive.
Join us.
